Hello! I can only imagine if you are reading this right now you have tried several ways to feel better and at this point something has to give. I am here to assist you in creating and working toward goals that will positively impact your overall well-being. I am told by clients that I am down to earth and help them feel at ease. I use a holistic integrative approach with clients, which basically means looking at a person as a whole (mind, body and spirit) and then find ways to meet their unique needs with evidenced based treatment.
I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been practicing for 11 years. I have a bachelor's of science with a major in psychology and master's of social work from the University of Utah. I am licensed and currently practice in Utah and Wyoming. I have experience providing treatment for individuals, families, and groups in the following settings: community mental health, private practice, and psychiatric hospitals. I worked in child welfare for several years in the past advocating for children and families. I volunteered at the prison in the mental health section teaching women basic life skills and ran therapy groups at a women's halfway house while completing my degrees. I have had the opportunity to work with people of all walks of life. Empowering others is one of my passions in life! My clinical interests and majority of my experience include treating: physical, emotional, and/or sexual trauma, depression, anxiety disorders, relationship issues, addictions, and adjustment to major life changes. The treatment modalities I may use are: cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectic behavioral therapy (DBT), narrative therapy, solution focused brief therapy, motivational interviewing, positive psychology, mindfulness, eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR), and family systems theory.
I have a blended family with two teenage step-kids and one biological son who is a toddler. My husband is a veteran and I have experience running the ship at home when he is away. I can relate to the stress of taking care of everything and trying to maintain a healthy balance. I look forward to getting to know more about you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Lindsay is amazing
I LOVE Lindsay! Love her perspective and expertise, she has truly changed my life. I feel like Lindsay really cares about me as an individual. She celebrates my progress and gives the best advise without it being overwhelming.
Lindsay is a very knowledgeable, friendly, and empathetic therapist. She applies effective techniques from recent research studies in our therapy sessions. Even though she is already very knowledgeable, she is always eager to learn new skills and ways to more effectively help her clients. I am grateful for having her as my therapist. She helped me through the depth of my depression and was able to pinpoint the root of my feelings. She also helped me discover that I have ADHD and encouraged me to get medical treatment, which significantly improved my quality of life.
Lindsay makes me feel heard, and reinforces positive self-talk. She motivates me to be better and helps me find motivation in my daily life. I recommend her highly.
My counselor had been truly amazing. I couldn't ask for a better counselor.
Lindsay is amazing!!!
Lindsay has been a wonderful counselor. She has been encouraging and offers insight that I would not be able to see on my own. She is thoughtful and understanding. She always takes my goals and desires into consideration while reminding me that I am worthwhile enough not be healthy and have boundaries. She helps me set realistic and attainable goals while offering tools and support to achieve them. Lindsay is trustworthy and reliable. I am beyond grateful for her and am excited to become the person she sees within me.
I am so glad that I found Lindsay she has really helped me the last couple months. I really don't know what I would do without her
Yes. Get Lindsay as your therapist if you can. She is easy to work with and it’s well worth the time spent with her.
Lindsay is incredible. I’ve had such a positive experience with her so far.
Lindsay is so wonderful, patient and kind. When I am speaking to her I feel like just a normal person. She validates my emotions and I just feel so comfortable with her. It has made the scary process of going to therapy all the better.
Lindsay is utterly amazing ! She just got me and knows how to help me.
Lindsay is very empathetic and encouraging, she really has my best interest at heart and I can feel so much good energy when I’m talking to her!
I love Lindsay! She has been great so far. She gives me lots of tools to use in the interim and is open to trying different therapies to help me. I look forward to seeing her weekly for the foreseeable future.u
Lindsay is an angel in disguise. I feel comfortable telling her just about anything and that’s incredibly rare for me. She makes me feel heard, more confident in myself/decisions, and at ease. There’s just something about her that’s incredibly nice to be around. I used to dislike the idea of video chatting with an online therapist because it made me nervous, but I notice I always feel better when I do talk to her. She doesn’t just feel like a therapist, but an actual friend who cares/listens to you. :)
Wonderfully open and approachable
